Research and innovation

Learning and innovation are at the heart of BookTrust’s work. From national surveys to understand reading behaviours in families to our co-creation approach to designing interventions that work for families we are committed to an evidence-based approach.

With our new strategy we are building on our already extensive body of research. We will be investing in new research on the benefits of reading, of the importance of representation in children’s literature and in deep co-design work to identify how we best support children from vulnerable family backgrounds to enjoy the broad benefits of reading.
